Have a look at

"Firefox is already running but is not responding" error - How to fix <-- clickable link (blue) --
kill firefox.exe (and maybe plugincontainer.exe) processes, the easiest method, as explained in the linked article is to use Task manger (Ctrl + Alt + Del {XP}) (Ctrl + Shift + Esc {>=Vista})
